KYIV, Ukraine – Even as the full-scale war enters its third year, Ukraine is demonstrating its resilience and commitment to economic growth by approving its first two significant investment contracts. This move signals a major leap forward in attracting foreign capital and fostering development, showcasing the unwavering spirit of Ukraine and its people.
These landmark contracts, facilitated by the Law on State Support for Projects with Significant Investments in Ukraine, are expected to inject nearly €95 million into the Ukrainian economy and generate over 200 new jobs. The projects span diverse sectors, including manufacturing, logistics, and healthcare, demonstrating the breadth of opportunities available in Ukraine.
Passed in 2021, the law offers a compelling package of incentives to entice foreign investors, including tax breaks and the potential for reimbursement of up to 30% of investment costs. This proactive approach underscores Ukraine’s dedication to creating a fertile ground for businesses to thrive despite the challenges posed by the ongoing conflict.
UkraineInvest, the government’s dedicated investment promotion office, played a pivotal role in guiding these contracts to fruition. By providing comprehensive legal, consulting, and analytical support, UkraineInvest serves as a trusted partner for investors navigating the Ukrainian market.
